Executive summary

Organizations are increasingly expanding their shared services organizations, demonstrating benefits to the broader enterprise and overall success, according to the latest global survey from Deloitte. Companies are pursuing multi-function shared services centers (SSCs) from the beginning of their journey, many skipping single-function centers altogether. In fact, survey respondents reported that SSCs with more than three functions have increased by more than 40 percent over the last two years, based on a total of more than 1,000 SSCs across all respondents. Additionally, 71 percent of respondents are looking to increase the number of functions within their SSCs in the future.
